The George Benson Sessions: The Making of Songs And Stories: Exotica

NEA Jazz Master and 10X Grammy-winning legendary musician George Benson will release his new album on August 25th entitled Songs and Stories. The album is a collection of tunes penned by some of the most prolific and enduring songwriters of the last half-century. Some were written specifically for this new recording, such as Bill Withers (who came out of retirement to write A Telephone Call Away for George), Rod Tempertons Family Reunion and Lamont Doziers Living in High Definition; while others, including James Taylors Dont Let Me Be Lonely Tonight, Donny Hathaways Someday Well All Be Free and Tony Joe Whites Rainy Night in Georgia were hand-picked by Benson for their ability to convey simple but universal truths about the human experience.
